I told a girlfriend of mine that I saw this with a star just to the right of it back then.She did not believe me until I looked it up on the computer for her.
Too bad this calendar does not show the stars. Coincidence?

Here's the view from the front of my house about 10 minutes ago. It doesn't look "red" to the naked eye but looks like it's on fire in these pics I just took, my digital camera is a little outdated, not the best..

Found the statement I was looking for on this site:
Edit: "This particular lunar eclipse is expected to draw incredible interest because it is visible from the entire United States, and also because the reddish eclipsed moon will float very near the striking blue star Spica, as well as hovering to the left of orange Mars," Slooh president Patrick Paolucci wrote in a statement.

"Homosexuality is not a civil right. Its rise almost always is accompanied, as in the Weimar Republic, with a decay of society and a collapse of its basic cinder block, the family."-Patrick Buchanan

"We must use terror, assassination, intimidation, land confiscation, and the cutting of all social services to rid Galilee of its Arab population."
